I’d give him a solid B.
He commanded the huddle, executed the offense, got the offense in the right formations as far as I could tell.
He appeared to be having fun.
He had some touch on a few really nice throws, he made plays when they were there.
He had one series that was kinda rough but overall I thought he had a nice game.
I don’t think we saw the full offense today either though.
What are your thoughts?

It was a 1-1 tie all game long. It was anybody's game up until the 10th inning.
It just so happens the Dodger's pitcher made a costly mistake to Arcia hitting a bomb.
After that the Dodgers players knew they couldn't come back after a 3 run dinger.
There's still a lot of baseball to be played for the remainder of the 2023 season.
